Blogger/journalist at databreaches.net and pogowasright.org. As a retired healthcare professional, breaches in the healthcare sector are my priority.

It has been four months since a hacktivist obtained 8.3 million tips submitted to organizations such as Crime Stoppers and Sandy Hook Promise. What the hacktivist found in terms of lack of security was appalling.
In the four months since Navigate360 (the parent company for P3 Global Intel and P3 Campus) learned of the breach, they have made zero public statements after the first day when they said they were investigating. Their wall of silence, and the conspiracy of silence involving programs like Safe2Say, Safe2Tell, SilentWitness, and Crime Stoppers has been unacceptable. No one has been notified, it seems. And we cannot find any state regulator that has been notified, either.
DataBreaches wrote about the disgraceful lack of transparency in a new post this week:
Broken Promises of Anonymity: Four Months Later, Still No Transparency. Now We’re Seeking Accountability.
https://databreaches.net/2026/07/20/broken-promises-of-anonymity-four-months-later-still-no-transparency-now-were-seeking-accountability/
In conjunction with that post, I filed a formal FTC complaint against Navigate360 under Section 5 of the FTC Act and also notified the National Association of Attorneys General, saying that states should be protecting their residents by investigating the breach and incident response.
And that's not all. Today, I have filed a complaint with one state attorney general's office and will be filing with others.
I will also be publishing a post this week about the Crime Stoppers data in the dataset and the ridiculous response by legal counsel for Crime Stoppers USA to inquiries by DataBreaches about what was being done to improve security.
I have not written up anything specific to all of the Canadian data in the dataset, but yes, Canadian crime stoppers and police organizations are in there, too.
Take Action:
If you know anyone in a state attorney general's office, encourage them to read up on the breach on my site, where I have also published tables with data for easy reference.
If you know anyone in the FTC, encourage them to read the complaint I filed and to act on it.
If you know any personal injury lawyer who should be handling a massive lawsuit alleging privacy harms, point them to my coverage.
Children and adults who tried to be good citizens and relied on promises of anonymity have been put in harm's way. We cannot allow this to be minimized or covered up.
